Revert commit f84af8e270 (add_test: Allow special characters in test
name, 2020-05-16, v3.18.0-rc1~142^2). Unfortunately the fix breaks
projects that were working around the limitation with manual escaping.
The fix can be re-introduced with a policy in a future version.
Also add a 3.18.1 release note explaining the change.
Fixes: #21017, #20965
Issue: #19391
Allow to specify both DIRECTORY and TARGET_DIRECTORY at the same time in
`set_source_files_properties()` and `set_property(SOURCE)` commands.
Add test cases and update the documentation.
Fixes: #20932
The FILES and DIRECTORY options were renamed in bbcff21f71
(file(ARCHIVE*): Collapse FILES and DIRECTORY options, 2020-06-30),
but the synopsis part of the file() documentation was missed.
The synopsis also typically only shows the mandatory options.
Update the synopsis to reflect the name changes and omit the
DESTINATION option since it is not mandatory.
The two options were concatenated internally for both ARCHIVE_CREATE
and ARCHIVE_EXTRACT. The distinction between files and dirs was not
meaningful. Therefore, replace them with PATHS or PATTERNS
to more accurately describe the way the options are used.
Fixes: #20884
In commit a6fee09484 (file: Add CONFIGURE subcommand, 2020-03-06,
v3.18.0-rc1~584^2) we accidentally treated relative path outputs
with respect to the current working directory. Treat them with
respect to the current binary directory instead.
Fixes: #20885
If `get_target_property` fails to find a value for a non-inherited
property, it appends `-NOTFOUND` to the var name and sets that as the
result, rather than setting the value of the var to `NOTFOUND`.

Both set_source_files_properties() and set_property(SOURCE) now accept
two new optional arguments: DIRECTORY and TARGET_DIRECTORY.
The DIRECTORY option takes a list of relative or absolute paths
pointing to processed source directories (add_subdirectory was
already called on them).
These paths specify directory scopes where the source file properties
will be set. Previously the scope was always the currently processed
source directory.
Similarly TARGET_DIRECTORY takes a list of targets, whose source
directories will be used as the list of scopes where to set the
source file properties.
get_property() and get_source_file_property() also get the same
new arguments, except only one value can be specified instead
of a list.
Fixes: #20128
When the path to a header file is specified using a generator
expression, evaluation of the genex must produce an absolute path.
Update our documented example and add a test covering the case.
Fixes: #20617
properties LINK_OPTIONS and INTERFACE_LINK_OPTIONS are propagated
to the device link step.
To control which options are selected for normal link and device link steps,
the $<DEVICE_LINK> and $<HOST_LINK> generator expressions can be used.
Fixes: #18265
